I was recently asked por a collegue what my favorito read of the ano was--I review a hell of a lot of new material every year. Matter-of-factly, I blurted out my answer without a segundo thought, "The Vampire Game por Les Bailey," I told him. "In fact, I loved the entire trilogy, It was extremely well written and the composição literária pulled me into another world away from my own. And the way I see it, that's exactly what a good novel is supposed to do!" I told him.

When I first came across Bailey's novel, he was a first-time published author. New to the world of publishing, or so I was told por his agent, But after leitura the piece I was skeptical. It was as if this author had been composição literária for a hundred years.

I was carried away on every word.

His composição literária was passionate and meticulous in its delivery, and as I wrote in an earlier review, the book, in fact, the whole trilogy, excels in depth of character and in beautiful language.

So I was excited to hear that Facebook, the social media powerhouse, will be carrying ads to promote the trilogy and standing behind it!

Celebrity biographer and composição literária coach, Randy Jernigan, this week admitted to a national radio audience that he has recently suffered total kidney failure, resulting in weekly dialysis and a drastic change in his life and schedule.

The 'Losing to Win!' author has been forced to postpone a number of professional commitments this month, explaining that his life was "turned upside down" when two coração attacks and renal failure cause him to be placed on weekly kidney dialysis for his survival

"This ano has been a rough one for me,": the author confessed to his radio audience. "The good news is I'm back working and back início with my family and I'm taking care of my health issues and making great progress on my road to recovery," Jernigan added.

According to the American Kidney Fund website, "Kidney Failure, also known as end-stage renal disease, is the last stage of chronic kidney disease.

When your kidneys fail, it means they have stopped working well enough for you to survive dialysis or a kidney transplant," the site explained.

We hear a lot about sexism against females, and some people think this extends to books, which it probably does. A lot of books have no females in them, or only have weak female characters, like damsels in distress which are just there to be saved por males. But recently, there has been a lot of strong, resourceful new female book characters. Here are my favourite strong heroines- and two of them are from books written por male authors, so well done men for realising that females can be string too.

1) Kestrel Hath, from The Wind on fogo series por William Nicholson. Most of you probably haven't read this series, but you should. Not only is it an incredible story, but it has this incredible character who for me has to be the number 1 heroine. She has everything you could ask for: strong, brave, relateable and loving (although she doesn't realise it). She also is admirably stubborn, strong willed, impulsive, has a fiery temper and a strong sense of what's right. She feels a relateable anger at being oppressed por society and is Valente enough to rebel against it.

Celebrity biographer and composição literária coach, Randy Jernigan, was forced to cancelar a number of professional commitments this mês when gout pain and blood pressure issues became so extreme, the writer had to seek medical attention.

Randy was diagnosed "years ago" as suffering with the condition that causes intense pain, usually in the feet, ankles and knees, and is experienced por only two percent of the American population.

Randy tells Fanpop.com, "I was in the middle of this terrible pain in my knees and ankles. Because of the condition being so severe, I had developed tumors in my legs related to the condition. It's sort of a rare thing, mostly genetic, and exceptionally painful. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy, if I had one. I felt terrible having to cancelar a commitment but sometimes you just have to call in sick," Randy explained.

In early June Randy shared on his facebook page that he had suffered a minor stroke, related to his chronic gout condition.

There are so many great books published every month, some titles worth leitura may get lost in the shuffle. So when I heard that my composição literária coach and mentor of ten years was finally releasing a book about successful freelance writing, I got excited!

It was about ten years atrás that I decided to get serious about my desire to make a living with what I loved the most--writing. So I looked up the number of a popular composição literária group in my início town, got registered and took a class. I had heard of the instructor before, even read a couple of his books and magazine articles, so I was thrilled at the prospect of what I could learn from this man. I wasn't disappointed.

This mans enthusiasm and excitement for the craft he taught, as well as his career, was contagious. He even introduced me to one of his magazine editors which was the launching pad for my new career as a published author.

Author and composição literária coach Randy Jernigan will publicar "The Freelance Writers Guidebook" the Spring 2018 in both paperback and electronic editions.

Ever randomly burst into tears and not know why? Nothing sad has happened in the last 30 seconds! You're not even thinking about sad stuff! What is wrong with you?!

This has happened to me quite a few times lately. Most notably, while revisiting some favorito filmes from my childhood. I pulled 'em out of the shed, dusted of the thin cardboard and clamshell VHS cases, and tried to remember how to work a VCR. (Stop picturing me in a rocking chair wearing a cardigan. And get off my lawn.) During several of these filmes that I watched hundreds of times in the early '90s, something strange happened. My throat felt tight. I began raging a battle against my own face, fighting the sudden onset of some strange liquid trying to force its way out of my eyes. What the hell is happening?! It's the opening credits, for cryin' out loud!

Fast progressivo, para a frente to why this is in the Books to Read spot and not the Dasm Has Issues spot. (Please do not actually create this spot.) In my quest for old stuff that reminds me of being a kid, I read Mary O'Hara's Flicka trilogy. (My Friend Flicka is fairly popular, but the seguinte two novels, Thunderhead and Green grama of...

Author and composição literária coach Randy Jernigan recently took to his facebook page to boast about his favorito writer and sidekick, author Les Bailey, and the final installment of his 'Vampire Game' trilogy.

"If you loved Les' first two books in the series, then you're going to really get into his third book," Randy exclaimed proudly in his Sunday afternoon post. "I just read the first chapter last night--what powerful writing! Every sentence was strong and kept me spellbound.Book three will absolutely knock your socks off, I have no doubt!"

A Salt Lake City native, Les Bailey actually began composição literária his popular vampire trilogy years earlier in one of Randy's creative composição literária courses in his Writers Studio in Utah.

In a anterior interview Randy once explained to me, "I knew when I first met Les several years back in one of my creative composição literária classes, that he was going to write the great American novel--and he did! Even then Les was a master storyteller. I remember vividly the feelings of excitement I experienced when he read allowed from one of his class assignments. The prose within the story was downright delicious. I recognized almost immediately...

Hi everyone, I had finally read Paulo Cuelho's bestselling novel, The Alchemist and here is my review on the popular novel.

The Story

While leitura the novel, I did not quite understand the story and it was not until the segundo half of the story that I managed to understand. It telling us to follow our dreams if a person desires for it!

The Characters

Santiago (or the Boy in this story) is a very likable character because he manage to understand what the Alchemist is telling despite being relatively young, he is my favourite character out of the novel! The other characters like the Englishman and just to name a few are very ambiguous, if you ask me.

Last ano I put together a list of books that I read coupled with my opinions on them, using my reviews from good reads. I decided to keep it going.

Avatar: The Last Airbender (Smoke and Shadow #3)

I got to read this one like way back in March thanks to tumblr lol. But I decided to wait until I actually got a physical copy to review it on here.

Any how 10/10 *was satisfied with the amount of Azula* As always, I really enjoyed the comic as a whole, I really liked this story line. The whole fear based theme and the Kemurikage were wonderful. I'd really amor to know mais about those ladies.

Life Is But A Dream

This book wasn't exactly what I expected it to be, but it still earned 5 stars for sure. Part of the reason I adore it so much is because it really spoke to me; in some ways I could see a lot of myself in Sabrina. I could see myself in her in the way that she had her own little world that she liked to escape into; "I don't care I say to my parents I like the world in my dreams, it's a happier place here." The line "Puberty flicked a switch in side of them and dreams were replaced by...

I'm excited to be reporting this tid bit of book news to my Fanpop.com readers!

If you remember, earlier this year, I reviewed a new book titled 'The Vampire Game: Discovery' written por hunky first-time author Les Bailey--which I absolutely adored! (I've read the book 3 times now!)

Well, I now get to denunciar that there is a great possibility that the novel in pergunta will be developed into a major movie!

According to several movie news outlets, the unique vampire tale has generated loads of interest among some of Hollywood's most influential filmmakers--and I can see why.

As I first reported back when the book debuted, The Vampire Game is not only one of the finest tales of the undead in my recent memory--it has brought me back to the vampire genre, which was growing stale for me.

And another exciting piece of news regarding a possible film, the producers want to offer the lead role to my very favorito actor in the world--Daniel Radcliffe.

'Losing to Win' author Randy Jernigan has put rumors to rest, coming out as gay on a Christian talk radio program this week.

The celebrity biographer opened up to close friend and talk show host Stephen Seares about his "life-long burden" in a very emotional interview on the early Sunday morning show.

Jernigan was asked to appear on the show to talk about politics and his support of Hillary Clinton when Seares perguntas turned personal.

"yes I'm gay..,and I've carried this secret with me all my life and I just can't do it anymore," Jernigan explained to the conservative radio audience. "It's a hard thing to go through life with such a heavy burden on your shoulders and having no one to talk to about it. There's still such a stigma in the Christian world when it comes to being gay. I was always so afraid I'd lose all my friends and even some of my family, I believe jesus calls us to live genuine lives--well, here's the real me," said the author.

Celebrity biographer Randy Jernigan's "Family Secrets" gets an official release encontro, data of May of 2017.

Jernigan, who recently published The Life and Career of Marie Osmond and is set to release a biography on Ellen DeGeneres, says he's always been an admirer of queen Elizabeth and the rest of her family, and has always wanted to take a serious look at the British Monarch in a book.

"I think queen Elizabeth is a great lady with a huge heart, especially when it comes to her family and her people," says Jernigan. "I've been collecting information on "the family" for years in hopes that one dia I'd have the opportunity to write an in depth, honest piece about them so I'm happy the chance has finally presented itself."

Jernigan, best known for his probing and aggressive interview style, says the book will be an honest look at the business of being royal, and even share "some new secrets" from some very solid royal sources that, at one point, worked for the Queen."

The successful Hollywood movie maker, who moonlights composição literária child to teen fantasia fiction, released her first full-length book in August 2014 titled 'Jemiyah Jones and the Kingdom of Nir.' The Kindle release quickly won Amazon’s “Breakthrough Novel Award” and soon fãs of the book began clamoring for a movie.

“I amor strong female characters and Jemiyah certainly fits into that category,” says the author. “I was interested in telling the tale of an everyday English schoolgirl with a rather amazing back story—that of warrior queen. The fact that Jemiyah has grown up unaware of her lineage makes for a rather compelling story line to unfold,” explained Eisenberg on her amazon.com author's page.

According the the Aegis Film Groups facebook page, Michael Schroeder has been attached to the project as the film's director, with composer Sharon Farber for música and soundtrack. Ned Dowd and Tim Moore will produce the feature.

First published solely through Kindle Books, the story hit the ground running, causing quite the stir in literary and social media circles. Fanpop.com contributor, known only as Fanmaven2015, (our boss!) had this to say about Bailey's story:

“This debut novel is not only one of the finest tales of the undead in my recent memory, it has brought me back to the vampire genre which was growing stale for me, sadly. Thank you, Mr. Bailey.”

Fanmaven goes on the say, “Passionate and meticulous in its delivery, the author's prose feeds us tantalizing hints of things to come in his story. In my humble opinion this literary offering excels in depth of character, in beautiful language and a unique storyline that made this tale a must re-read,” the writer gushed.

Bailey is a former student of Randy Jernigan's The Writers Studio located in Utah. Randy had this to say about Bailey's book:

After his success with 'The Life and Career of Marie Osmond,' fã book series author Randy Jernigan has wasted no time in moving on to the seguinte super-star to be brought to life in the series. the one and only Ellen DeGeneres!

New Ellen Bio "I've always been an admirer of Ellen's work, not just as a talk show host and comedian, but as a person too," says Jernigan of his seguinte subject. "Ellen does a lot of wonderful things for people on the show as well as in her personal life that most people never hear about. She's an inspiration to a lot of people out there, especially the lgbt community, so I'm excited to be featuring her in this fã book series."

Known as the dancing comedian, Ellen DeGeneres has become a beloved televisão ícone and entertainment pioneer. Ellen's distinctive comic voice resonates with audiences from her stand-up comedy routines, in televisão and film, and even in the literary world.

Randy Jernigan has signed an agreement with a new American publisher and cable network to write a biography and now a documentary on the British Royal family which he's tentatively titled, "Family Secrets."

Jernigan, who recently published The Life and Career of Marie Osmond, says he's always been an admirer of queen Elizabeth and the rest of her family, and has always wanted to take a serious look at the British Monarch in a book.

Randy loved the idea so we pulled the project back till we completed the documentary," explained Terry Griffen, Jernigan's agent.

"I think queen Elizabeth is a great lady with a huge heart, especially when it comes to her family and her people," says Jernigan. "I've been collecting information on "the family" for years in hopes that one dia I'd have the opportunity to write an in-depth, honest piece about them so I'm happy the chance has finally presented itself."

Seeing as I haven't posted an artigo here yet I thought I'd type up a little something. This'll be a list of books that I read and some mini reviews of them; seeing as there are a lot, I will be utilizing my reviews from 'Goodreads'. Some reviews will be cut short to keep the length down. Some reviews will have spoilers.

Croak

First and foremost, I amor Lex. She's sassy, funny, and sarcastic. She also was all head over heals for Driggs. You can tell she likes him, but it doesn't turn the story into some silly stupid romance novel, basically it didn't obstruct the plot. I really really loved, above all else, the interaction between Poe and Teddy and how Dr. Seuss had to cheer up Emily Dickinson. I also enjoyed the plot as a whole--the concept of teenage boys and girls having the ability to reap souls.

Chosen At Nightfall

While I really liked the other books in the series I just fell like this one was really weak which sucks because it was the last book and the last boom should be the best! One if the only good bits about it was Kylie's newest ghost (and the ghost's connection to Mario, great plot...

When celebrity biographer Randy Jernigan announced that he would be publishing a series of fã books celebrating stars that had positive reputations, he had no inkling of the tidal wave of hateful, mean spirited comments about to come his way.

Shortly after his publishing company's announcement, several online tabloids wrote negative pieces about Randy's book series. Even popular blogger Perez Hilton wrote a story, attributing frases to Randy that proved false and misleading. When these reports began to surface, online trolls began to flock to Randy's social media pages leaving comment after comment taking aim at everything from his composição literária talents to his looks and age.

“I was absolutely dumbfounded—I wanted to just crawl under a rock and hide,” Randy recently told Chicago's KSCR Indie Radio in an early morning interview.

When Randy released his first fã book, The Life and Career of Marie Osmond, six of his most prolific haters posted negative comments on his amazonas, amazon, amazônia page. "Which didn't surprise me--they actually...

Hi guys, I would like to write down some of my favourite books that I had previously and currently reading.

The Harry Potter Series

I amor Harry Potter series, because it's very intrigue and I amor J.K Rowling's style of writing. She's one of the inspiration in writing! So salute to her and will read the latest Harry Potter book once it comes out.

The Chronicles of Narnia

I had always thought that this is even better than Harry Potter because it's mais extraordinary and has mais suspense. However, one of the things that I was disappointed that Susan Pevensie did not cadastrar-se the gang in 'The Last Battle'. If she was, we would be very happy with the ending especially!

Love, Rosie/ When Rainbows End

This is highly unusual because I like how the story is told through email format. I also amor the Irish accent because it's sound sexy and extraordinary unusual!
